Spring in Texas to Winter in Kansas

Matt and I spent last week in Texas (here's why if you haven't read my post from Saturday yet). The temperatures in Texas ranged from the 40's at night up to 60's during the day. We were able to sit outside, not wear our heavy coats, and bask in the lovely warmth (compared to Kansas weather).

The backyard.

See those icicles? They are treacherous! They keep falling off the house.

Our sidewalk, the snow is about 12 inches deep!
